Nvidia purchased about 214.7 million Intel shares at $23.28 per share, totaling roughly $5 billion. With Intel trading near $37 today, that stake is valued around $7.6 billion. The deal closed after U.S. FTC approval and is tied to broader plans to collaborate on chips.

How did the news impact Intel stock today?

Shares traded at $37.42, up 3.37%, with a session range of $36.82 to $38.26. Volume was below the 90-day average, suggesting a measured reaction. The stock sits near its 50-day reference ($38.01) and remains above its 200-day trend ($27.27), keeping the longer uptrend intact.

What is the Street’s current view on Intel?

Analysts lean neutral: 4 Buy, 14 Hold, 5 Sell. The median target is $30, with a consensus around $32.13, and a range from $19 to $52. That spread shows debate on execution, margins, and the timing of benefits from the Nvidia partnership and product ramps.

What are the key levels and indicators to watch next?

Key resistance: $38.26, $38.89, and $44.02. Supports: $36.82, $34.03, and the 200-day at $27.27. RSI is 43, ADX is 18.9, MACD is negative, and MFI near 19.5 suggests oversold. A volume-backed move above $38.90 would likely brighten the short-term setup.
